Honestly I was afraid to take the leap and jump to a full frame camera and now I wish Id done it sooner. I love using my Nikon D750 with the 50mm 1.4f lens. The video quality is amazing and I was very impressed with the personalized customer service I received from the sale associates. I will definitely continue to shop here.

I was reluctant to order the lens from 42nd Street Photo, given the tight window for my purchase. I was leaving on our vacation within the week. I talked to their salesman and as promised the lens arrived in time for the travel. I liked the pleasant and friendly sales people that assisted me. It is a great place for service, quality of product and great pricing.

I recently pruchased a Nikon flash unit from 42nd Street Photo as the price was well below all other vendors. The service and help I received from the staff was outstanding. They were able to answer all the questions I had concerning my purchase. Go with 42nd Street Photo for your photographic needs and you'll be glad you did.

I bout a Canon 6D from them initially because they had the best price. An issue came up (not related to them) because of a misunderstanding on my part about the product. They explained it to me, made the adjustment and then expedited my delivery at no extra expense. I don't think this happens all the time, but i am sure happy they made an exception for me in my desperate times of need.

I used to get tired of hauling around my DSLR with multiple lenses. I now use my Sony RX100 IV exclusively. It's a pocketable size, and the quality of my images are impeccable. The lens is fast and sharp. I've never had any problems with 42nd Street Photo.
